Henry C. Perry Com- T mits Suicide, —_——— Widow and Friends of the Unfortu- nate Man Unable to Find the Motive for His Act. Sl Oakland Office San Francfsco Call, 118 Broadway, Dec. 1. Fearful that long lliness was destroying his reason, Henry C. Perry, a civil en- | | gineer residing in Berkeley, committed sulcide last night by inhaling gas in a room at 565 Eleventh street. His plans for suicide were made with much deliberation. Perry rented a small | back room at the place yesterday after- | noon. Last evening he spent several hours with his wife at their home on Ashby avenue, where his last act was to arrange a lengthy list of his possessions. For several hours they went over their affairs, Perry requesting his wife's as- sistance, saying he wanted to see where | his Ainances stood, as he had not examined them for some time. During the conver- sation, Perry gave no evidence of his con- templated death. His mind was upon the subject, for once he sald to his wife, “What would you do, dear, without me?” Mrs. Perry observed nothing to arouse her suspicions. Her husband’s conduct had of late been somewhat erratic, 8o she .did not deem it strange when he sudden- 1y declared he was going out for a walk, and that his wife snould retire and not wait for his.return. | "The engineer went at once to the lodg- | | ing-house and prepared for death. First he moved the bed directly under a gas burner in the room. Then he turned on | the key and-knelt by the side of the bed.
